Clinical Pharmacokinetics of Oral Buspirone in Patients with Impaired Renal Function

12 patients with mild to moderate impairment of renal function and 12 healthy subjects each received 20mg buspirone as a single dose in this acute study. Six anuric patients with chronic renal failure were given two 20mg doses of buspirone, the first 2 days before haemodialysis (between dialyses) and the second during hemodialysis (2 hours before dialysis began).
